Quixote update



In chapter 4 of Don Quixote, a 15-year-old boy is whipped soundly. For some reason, I am inspired by this image (as was Gustav Doré, apparently)



Last night record snow falls in Texas left me stranded on the tarmac with other passengers in a small Midwest jet bound for Minnesota. As we waited out four and half hours of sitting, I got through 3 more chapters of Don Quixote, with what I think is fair comprehension. My notes continue to grow, but as I was telling my classmate HJ this afternoon, I actually don't know what I'm doing with this "chapter" of my dissertation yet.

I think that's why it's so fun.
